The All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) has launched a pioneering course aimed at preparing students for careers in India’s rapidly expanding defence sector. The program is designed to equip young professionals with the technical expertise and practical skills required to contribute to the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO), Indian Armed Forces, and related defence organisations.
This initiative comes as part of India’s broader effort to strengthen domestic defence capabilities and promote self-reliance in strategic technologies. The curriculum combines theoretical knowledge with hands-on training in areas such as defence engineering, advanced research methods, and applied security technologies.
AICTE has collaborated with defence experts and industry leaders to ensure the program aligns with real-world requirements, helping students seamlessly transition into high-demand defence roles. Participants will gain exposure to defence projects, strategic operations, and innovative technologies that underpin national security.
Experts believe that this course will bridge the skills gap in India’s defence workforce and encourage a new generation of innovators ready to drive research, design, and production in critical defence sectors. Admission will be open through participating technical institutions, with certification recognized across key defence organisations.
The course represents a significant opportunity for students aspiring to contribute to India’s defence ecosystem while gaining valuable professional experience in technology and national security.
